TO ALI; WHOM 1T MAY CONCERN: i l

Beit known that I, JAMES H. SPERBECK,'0` Warsaw, in the county ofWyoming, and State ofNew York, have v J n invented certain new anduseful Improvements in ,AHoi-sCollars, and do lierebyoleolerc that thefollowing A full, lenr, and-exact description thereof, reference beinghad to the accompanying dra\\ r.gs, znd`t`o the letters of referencemarked thereon, making a part of this specification. l This inventionconsists in a horse-eo1lar and hannes combined, havinr the tracespermanently attached toit, as herinafterdeseribed. VIn the annexeddrawings-f Y v "Fg'iiijeS-A ep'resn'ntlny improved'coilarjwilfw Figure Fepresents the ordinary names yand collar.

The rim of my collar may -be made ot' wood, iron, or any other` suitablemnter'ial, and is attached to. the

collar, and covered with the leather of' the said. collar, therebyuniting the two parts in one. The line-terret as well as the trace-ha'spisattnched'to tlieembedded rim. The main portion oi' che collai` isprovided with tw extended ears D E, which have suitable buckles ontheir-ends, as shown, for connecting the traces. The traces may lJ'eattached by passing them around the rim and stitchinfr them down to thecollar-pad; the object of which is to make it stronger at, the end ofthe trace where the same is passed around the rim, and to allow thedraught to be even on the Horse and in the proper place. The ring forthe breast-strap, drawing B, passesby d i a staple into the pad justhack of the point H, and the staple 1s fastened to a strpol" iron placedinside of the pad. The rim used may ,be either solid or it may-bebnckled or jointedat eitherlor both top and bottom. The

to the hasp may be by joint or otherlknow'n fastening. v

Having thusfullydescribed my invention, what I claim as new, and desireto secure by Letters Patent, is- The combination of the elongated ears ED withthe hameless horse-collar, as described, when constructedsubstantially as set forth'. I
